THE Waco Examiner has sacrificed its
manhood to high hat at the opera. No
woman even defends the nuisance save
on the plea of fashion, and the sex II i'll
wear the high hat to be in the style, while
the men and the women behind them risk
their immortal souls by oaths, not loud
but deep. Much is promised him who
saveth one soul, and THE GAZETTE pleads
for the souls of those who sit behind
waving plumes and cupolss and turrets
and domes and towers.

SECTION 6, article 10, of the constitu-
ton of Texas provides that no "railroad
company organized under the laws OF
this state shall consolidate by private or
judicial sale or otherwise with any other
railroad company organized under the
laws Of any other state or of the United
States" That may be very well in order
to prevent outside roads from gobbline
up Texas roads; but suppose road or
ganiZed under the laws of this state wants
to acquire road organized under the
laws of another state and thus extend its
line? 1t may be well enough for Texas
to protect its roads from outsiders, but
why should Texas protect outsiders from
its own people?

THE GAZETTE yesterday:
SwEETwATER. TEN. rs.
To the Editor of the '-azrtte.
DEAR EDIToR-l our correspondent, in his
peregrinations, visited Midland county on Tues
day at the request of Hon. G. w. Bay Tor, their
Representative. The County Judge was incig-
nant at my coming to his county on my mission
said mo drouth sufferers here; we had but
six far Ters, four of whom have left, and the
other two have too much stock to take he iron
clad oath" He sttted SO far FIR m needing
anything he stood ready 10 ship car load OF
beef 10 any poor county l would designate.
They shipped a car the cay before came, and
one grass fed steer was weigh d Il saw it with
my own eyes, or the same thing several persons
told me-, which weighed 1873 pounds.
VIII be in Cisco till Monday; any commands
to the Con missioners will be attended. We
meet on sundays, have all 70 sign a draft
we would give county Judge for either pro-
visions or seed from outside sources. Yours
truly, WALLER p. LANE,
Drouth Commissioner.

THE Upton (Mo} Times has this tc
say of former Texas journalist: "The
st. Louis Republican is doing heroic
service in behalf of the people of Mis-
souri, in exposing the wiles and corrupt
ing efforts of the horde of lobbyists that
infest Jefferson City. With characters
tic enterprise it has q special wire at the
disposal of its corps of correspondents
and furnishes the most complete reports

NOT POLITICAL CONTEST.

DR.. Carroll's call for non-pOlitical
state convention Of ProhibItioDistS ST
Waco the 9TH inst. is the first move on
the Prohibition side, preparatory to the
grand contest that is to be decided in
August Those who have read the call
cannot fail to note that it is very care
fully worded. DR.. Carroll is careful to
lay stress on the non-political character
that is desired for the gathering, which,
of course, is an index of the character ne
desires to give to the movements de-
sire to draw recruits from every quarter
to the Prohibition banner. This is q
polite move, but it is : also COM
mendahle and its spirit deserves
to be emulated by those who will
oppose the prohibitory amendment.
The question at issue is in no wise
political In the literal sense of that term.
1t is purely moral question and an eco
nomiC one. a mans standing as Dem
ocrat or Republican is not to be meas
ured by his views and action regarding
prohibition. The Galveston convention
spoke clearly and unequivocally on that
point, and Democratic Legislature has
supplemented the action OF the oonven-
ton. 1t is in order to discuss whether
prohibition will or will not prohibit, and
that is d question of morals; it is equally
In order to discuss whether the state can
or cannot afford to run the risk of losing
the revenue that accrues every year from
the liquor licenses, and that is an econom-
ic question-and on those two PROPOSE
tions the battle should be waged. THE
GAZETTE deems it proper to say this much
in advance, before the fight opens, that
nti-Prohibitionists can well afford and
indeed must meet DR.. Carroll and his
friends on the proposition that this is to
be an essentially non political contest.

THE interest of the people in the coun-
try in good roads should be met by like
interest on the part OF the people of the
town. Why cannot the Alliance take this
matter in hand? Organized effort could
thus be made and the cause ad-
vanced. The farmer is too much
isolated at best; his calling forces this on
him. With good roads there could be
more intercourse, and with intercourse
comes catholicism of feeling. One object
of the Alliance is to advance and improve
its membership, and good roads will ia
cilitate the communion and intercourse
which promote advancement and i'm
provement, to say nothing of the material
interests subserved by passable outlets to
market.

Ambrose Smith of Big Spring had an
untamed broncho that he wanted to have
broken as a saddle horse. He OffeIed a
couple OF vanqueros s. if they or either OF
them would ride him. The vanqueros
looked at the animal, but thought that
riding him would be too much risk of
neck for that amount Of money, and de-
clined. Soon two squaws came along, and
stopped to look at the horse. Mr.. Smith,
in his spirit o. fun, told them he would
give them 81. so if they would ride the
horse. They at once acceptrd the offer.
The animal was caught and battered and
the squawS led him away some distance
from the house. Soon after u of them
went to Mr.. Smith and asked for a saddle.
No such thing had ever been on the back
of the horse, but let them have it. Nat
long afterwards be looked out and to his
establishment saw both squaws on the back
OF the brOnchO and the animal going along
quite gently. The squaws beat the pro-
fessional hoTsebreakers.
